About this Gig
Need a gravity retaining wall or modular block retaining wall for your backyard slope, driveway elevation change, or garden terrace? I'm a civil engineer specializing in residential landscaping and slope stabilization designs that pass local permits.
You don't need an expensive cast-in-place concrete wall. Gravity walls and modular block systems are costeffective, durable, and DIYfriendly when properly engineered. I provide stamped calculations, crosssection drawings, and material takeoffs tailored to your soil type and wall height (up to 4ft gravity / 6ft modular with geogrid). Every design follows ACI 318, IBC, and NCMA standards. No generic templates each project gets unique soil pressure analysis and safety factor verification.
I've helped 40+ homeowners avoid retaining wall failures. Message me your site photos and wall height for a free feasibility check before ordering.

FAQ
Do I need a permit for a gravity or modular block retaining wall?
Most U.S. jurisdictions require a permit for walls over 3-4 feet tall or any wall supporting a surcharge. My designs include all calculations needed for permit submission. I can also advise whether your specific project qualifies for an exemption.
Can I build this myself from your plans?
Absolutely – modular block walls are designed for DIY installation. My drawings include step-by-step block placement, drainage requirements, and geogrid positioning. For gravity walls (stone or poured concrete), I recommend a contractor unless you have masonry experience.
. What information do you need from me to start?
Just three things: wall height, soil type (sand/clay/unknown), and photos of the site. I'll confirm if I need a rough sketch of slope or existing structures. No survey required for the basic package.
